Attention Sir, I Have Your Heart Handcuffed!-Chapter 438 - 314. Don’t be sad, the child in my heart (Part 2 of 3)
But Meng Chuyan was ultimately a clear-minded girl. The more she realized she was beginning to feel, the more she understood that all this could only be a dream. So when the dream-like scene where she could rest really appeared before her eyes, she decided to end her life. This way, she wouldn’t have to wait for the day she’d wake from the dream, and could sleep in it forever.
Meng Chuyan’s death had nothing to do with Tang Yanqing, but objectively, Tang Yanqing undoubtedly accelerated her plan’s execution.
Tang Yanqing was at a loss for words after hearing everything, lowering his head for a long time before saying, "Moreover, the night of the big party, she followed me to the police station to make a statement. Even then, she understood she wouldn’t have the opportunity to continue living in this world. Despite my constant reassurances to her, saying I’d do my utmost to protect her, she kept saying she was preparing to say goodbye to me."
"She said that in her lifetime, she never had the chance to change her fate, never had the means to protect herself, so she revealed everything, hoping to alter the fates of other girls, hoping they would be protected by her honesty."
Shi Nian shed tears, "Tang Yanqing, you must personally bury Meng Chuyan. Otherwise, I won’t forgive you."
He reached out to pull her into his arms, "Alright, I promise."
.
Meng Chuyan’s funeral.
At first, everyone had slightly different opinions; the agent had even asked whether Meng Chuyan should be brought back to M Country for burial. But Luo Xiansheng said there was no need; since she chose to sleep forever in Singapore, and there’s also the booth from her dream here, let her remain here.
When Luo Xiansheng said this, Shi Nian looked at Luo Xiansheng intensely before turning his head to meet Tang Yanqing’s gaze.
There still needed to be relatives or friends to talk about Meng Chuyan’s life. Unfortunately, she had no relatives or friends, so her agent took on this responsibility.
The agent was steeped in sorrow, so Shi Nian helped him compose the speech, with him dictating and Shi Nian writing.
Suddenly, Shi Nian asked, "Were her Chinese name Meng Chuyan and her English name Judy both given by you?"
Guan Liang and his team had already researched and said Meng Chuyan was a girl without a past, so these two names couldn’t be her real ones; they were given later.
The agent shook his head, "No. Although the entertainment industry has rules for agents to rename, her name itself was fine, and she insisted on using it, so we didn’t force her."
Shi Nian’s heart sank, and she lowered her head.
Meng Chuyan: Meng—Dream; Chuyan, maybe it was a goose she once saw in her childhood, or perhaps it symbolized her hope that there would be a day for wild geese to return home.
And "Judy" reminded one of Jude... a poor child...
Burial.
Tang Yanqing, Luo Xiansheng, the agent, and Fang Xingzhou carried the coffin across the lawn to the grave.
The wind was bleak, the lawn lonely.
With each step, Tang Yanqing softly hummed The Beatles classic song "Hey Jude."
Hey, Judy, don’t be sad. This is a sad song, but we will sing it joyfully.
Shi Nian’s tears soaked his clothes.
This classic song that has been popular for decades, even sung in unison at the London Olympic Games in 2012, is little known to be written for a lonely child.
Meng Chuyan, Nisha; and once Rosa... or even Huangfu Huazhang himself; or perhaps each of us, at some point, was merely a lonely child.
People grow up, arming themselves with knowledge and wealth to appear mature and strong, but in truth—that lonely child has never gone far. She (he) still dwells within our hearts, gazing solitary at the empty world.
Who sends a brocade book among the clouds? When the geese return, the dream is back home.
Judy, sleep well... in the world of dreams, there is no sorrow.
.
Returning to M Country, everyone left the airport and headed for their respective cars.
Tang Yanqing and Luo Xiansheng bade farewell.
Watching Luo Xiansheng’s figure departing, Shi Nian couldn’t help but softly ask, "Is he really without problems?"
Tang Yanqing squinted his eyes, "No. There are still doubts surrounding him; there are things he’s hiding from all of us."
Although Meng Chuyan’s death seemed unrelated to him, it does not negate the fact he was a client of Yanwu Square, and most importantly, the relationship between Starry Sky Network and Tong’s wife, especially considering Father had once been the conductor for his orchestra.
Shi Nian lowered her head, "Is there something I can mention?"
Tang Yanqing nodded, "Go ahead."
Shi Nian took a deep breath, "I once visited Sister Sheng’s shop... Big Sister likes to do crafts, doesn’t she? I saw a half-drawn blueprint at the time, didn’t pay attention to it then, but thinking it over, it seemed like it was for that Purple Copper Wind Chime."
Tang Yanqing’s complexion also changed.
.
Shi Nian took Ye He back to the company to report.
Lippmann expressed his approval, returning to his office, and Xiao Mai cheered as she rushed up, "I didn’t think you’d come back so soon. That case seemed so complicated; how did you solve it so quickly?"
Ye He scratched her head, "Can I say it was like I slept, and when I awoke, the case was solved?"
Shi Nian smiled, "That’s exaggerating."
Ye He giggled, "It’s really the Singapore police’s efficiency; it’s indeed a clean governance country. Looking at Tang Yanqing, Mr. Tang, who boasts of being an honored detective and behavior analysis expert, is really weak compared to them!"
Ye He’s resentment hasn’t dissipated.
Xiao Mai cautiously looked at her, "Weren’t you Tang Sir’s number one fan before?"
Ye He sighed longingly, "Mistaking good people~ but luckily, our leader didn’t make a mistake and discarded him long ago! Hmm, Mr. Huangfu is always better!"
Shi Nian could only smile and shake her head, hurrying to finish her work.
She planned to meet with Rosa in the evening to find out what happened.
.
After work, the three of them chatted and laughed as they reached the door.
The golden sun slanted down, shining upon the large, black car facing directly the building entrance. The long-wheelbase Rolls-Royce was like a little castle, nobly and elegantly parked by the roadside, receiving the gaze of everyone.
Shi Nian quietly took a breath.
Ye He, however, was delighted: "Leader, Mr. Huangfu is here!"
The car door opened, and Huangfu Huazhang stepped down with a smile, walked over, and met Ye He’s sparkling eyes, then laughed, "Ye He, thank you for passing Singapore."
"Oh, you’re welcome!" Ye He’s face turned red, "Mr. Huangfu saying so is really too formal."
Seeing Ye He’s eyes still glued to his car, Huangfu Huazhang reached out to invite, "Why not let my driver take Ye He and Xiao Mai back?"
Ye He was instantly excited, "Then, what about you and our leader?"
The front seat was occupied; are there four people in the back?
Huangfu Huazhang smiled, "You two take my car. I can walk alone with your leader."
Ye He and Xiao Mai immediately succumbed to the long-wheelbase Rolls-Royce’s appeal, exuberantly accepting the invitation.
Only Shi Nian and Huangfu Huazhang were left standing.
Shi Nian was a bit uneasy, trying hard to smile, "Sir... I just got back, so..."
"So you didn’t have time to call me to tell me you returned. But it doesn’t matter; anyway, I’m quite free and have plenty of time to follow your whereabouts. You’ve returned, and even without your notice, I knew."
He reached out and gently caressed her cheek, "Just consider this as a surprise I’ve prepared for you. My little girl, I’ve missed you dearly."
